- 1/2 medium red onion, sliced into 1/4-inch strips
- 1 medium lime, juice only (about 2 tablespoons)

For The Seasoning:

- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
- Prep Filling: Slice chicken breast, bell peppers, and red onion into ¼-inch strips. Prepare desired toppings.
- Season Chicken: In a bowl, combine chicken with oregano, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt.
- Cook Chicken: Heat olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned chicken and cook for 9-10 minutes, turning halfway, until cooked through (165°F/74°C). Remove and cover.
- Cook Vegetables: Add bell peppers and red onion to the skillet. Cover and cook for 7-8 minutes, until tender. Remove lid, add chicken, and squeeze lime juice over.
- Assemble Wraps: Divide chicken and vegetables evenly among tortillas. Add desired toppings.
- Fold Wraps: Fold sides of tortillas toward the center. Fold one remaining side over the center and roll.
- Optional Browning: Spray a clean skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook until browned, about 30-60 seconds per side.
Notes
- Customize with toppings like guacamole, sour cream, diced tomatoes, or cheese.
- Substitute seasoning with 1 ½ tablespoons of taco seasoning, but still add ½ teaspoon of salt and adjust to taste.
- Warm tortillas between damp paper towels in the microwave for 30-60 seconds for easier rolling.
